I had no problem taking off, turning or even braking. These tires have grip that defies the laws of physics! Me being in a RWD car, I was able to keep up with SUVs and trucks with these tires.......
The reason Blizzaks are so good is because they are made of a soft rubber that resists getting rigid in cold temperatures. But I must caution you....though 99% of the time they will hold the SNOWY road and get you through with ease I would not get too overly confident. ICE is not SNOW and Blizzak can get squirrelly on ICE.
